Peck: ut is said that the passage
of the Interstate commerce bill, by
congress, will prevent railroads from
issuing passes to any person but rail-
road employees. Then | shall hire
out as brakeman, that's all. After
riding on passes for quarter of a
century, until past tie medium of life,
does any congress think | am going
to begin to walk now, or pay my fare.
1t is too much to expect. 1t is a
question whether congress has a right
to cause railroads to quit granting
passes. 1t is clearly unconstitutional.
Railroads have got in habit of grant
ing passes and it has become second
nature to railroad officials to do so,
and to shut them off now is perfectly
cruel. If this obnoxious law goes into
effect, it will cause weeping Oh the part
of railroad officials, when it become
necessary for them to refuse passes.
III those who now ride on passes are
compelled to pay fare or walk, pedest-
rianism will become popular, and the
ties will be worn So that railroads will
beg to be permitted to grant passes to
the walkers, to save their road beds.
o, what did the people elect such
congressman for? Those consrcssmen
don't know enough TO 60 iii when it
rains"

The Grantshurg Sentinel thinks
we use harsh words when we say
those who voted in the L. S. senate
against submitting constitutional
amendment allowing women the right
of suffrage, are towards or knaves We
think not. They are NOR | towards,
because they dare not face the people
least a majority Of their respective
districts might be opposed to the mca-
sure, and would refuse to keep them
in nice fat Office. They are political
knaves because they assume an AFRO
CANT defiance and authority never
delegated to them by the people in as
Stunning to nave the right to deny the
requests, nay demands of the people.
We claim that the Senators have no
option in the matter so long rs the re-
quests are not vicious nor uuconsti-
tutional as in this case. The people
do not ask Mr.. Sawyer and Mr..
Spooner, (to make 4 homeapplication)
TO decide the case for them, whether
the people of Wisconsin want woman
suffrage or not; they only SAX them
to submit the question to a vote OF
the people in the way and manner
prescribed by the constitution. and
those Senators have no other rightful
course than to obey the demand. In
denying the request they make them
selves judges and masters, forgetting
that they are but the servants Of the
people. No politically honest man
will take to himself such unauthorized
powers. 1t is an open insult to the
people.

State Senator Whiteman, of Du-
luth, while explaining his position and
vote on the Minnesota high license
law, first says he IS in favor Of high
license, but considers $500 a HIGH
license, while the bill calls $1,000 a
high license. Then he closes by say
ing, Chose OF Us who follow Jefferson
do not believe in probationary legis-
lation. We regard il as an unlawful
interference with personal liberties. :"
Mr.. Nhiteman is not consistent or
honest. Why does he vote FOR a $500
license? To increase the revenue and
lessen the trafc by crowding out the
low or financially weak saloon keeper.
All right, but in doing 50 is he not I'M
lawfully interfering with the public
liberties Of that class of dealers. Per-
sonal liberties in this matter means
the abolition Of all licenses. Let the
poor man with only credit enough to
get keg of beer have a chance 10
open saloon just as we'll rs his rich
neighbor who can pay $1,000 for a
license. You can't vote for a $500
license and for personal liberty with
only one ballot, Mr.. w hiteman.

In the prisons established upon the

convicts work in their cells, they have
what they called the "crank labor" an
iron cylinder Or drum two feet long and
eighty or twenty inches in diameter
resting upon legs. A spindle or shaft is
passed through the drum, with crank
on one end for turning it. Attached to
the spindle within the drum, which was
filed with sand, were fiat arms, making
it necessary to use considerable force to
turn tia dull, heavy drag. A dial attach
ed to the machine registered the number
of revolutions the convict had made.
From eight to ten thousand was the
usual daily stint. Can one imagine a
more terrible situation for human be-
ing to be placed in than to be shut up
alone in q cell ten feet square. and from

20 Bridge t5le sau:t.

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. Ten. w.
ID. Washburn returned from the east
this morning where he has been for
some time in the interest of the $500"
bridge. In conversation about his
journey and its results he said: The
bridge matter is practically settled.
The commerce committee were not
willing that two bridges should be
built at that point and for that mat
ter | was not either. A Detroit COM
pany already had a charter granted
III 1892, but have arranged now so
that everything is satisfactory to all
parties. We have an agreement by
which the $500" the Canadian Pacfc
and the Duluth, South Shore & At
lantie are to build the bridge together
and when the Grand Trunk gets It's
line to the Sault it is to be taken into
the company. The 500 and the South
Shore each own a quarter at the start
and the Canadian Pacific a half, but
it will divide wi h the Grand Trunk
so that finally all will own equal shares.
This agreement has been made with
the Detroit, Mackinac & Marquette
as party and Is satisfactory to them.
We wired Mr.. Van Horn from New
York several days ago to get out the
material and so to work on the bridge
at once. 1t will be steel structure
and will cost S560000.

The Graud Trunks Project.

WINNIPEG, Man, Feb. From
the beginning Of the construction of
the Hudson Bay road last fall there
has been great mystery as to where
the funds came from. President
Sutherland has repeatedly announced
that money was behind him. but al
ways refused to state who was supply
ing it, 1t is stated here now in GER
tain quarters that the Grand Trunk
Railway is the real promoter of the
road, and is construction is only IA
part Of great plan by which that
road Will become vigorous rival to
the Canadian Pacific road in the north
west trade. The Grand Trunk rail
way has projected a line from the Mid
land raj way in Ontario along the
north shore of Lake Huron, to Sault
Ste Marie, a distance of - miles
1t has charter for a bridge across
the straits, and vii! there connect with
a railway along the south shore of
Lake Superior to Duluth. \ line from
Superior and Duluth to Winnipeg
will be built as soon as the Dominion
government is forced to abandon its
policy of disallowing local railway
charters, and the Grand Trunk rail
way will then have a direct line from
here to the seaboard. 1t will connect
with the Manitoba & Northwestern,
and will through it reach the Sask-
atchewan valley on the route former
ly laid out by the Canadian Pacific
road. With line from here to Hud-
son bay and another to the Atlantic
the Grand Trunk would be very for
midabie competitor to the Canadian
Pacific.
